Priority10Focus size32

[0087]The priority criterion of two claims will be compared in the following manner:[0088]1. The claim with highest priority will be chosen as the better claim.[0089]2. If both claims have the same highest priority then the coverage percentage of that priority is compared. The coverage percentage is the focus size of that priority divided by the total focus size of that claim. The claim that has the higher coverage percentage will be chosen as the better claim.[0090]3. If both claims have the same coverage on their highest priority then that vector will be compared again from step 1 disregarding the highest priority.

3.4 Ambiguity

[0091]A claim is said to be ambiguous if it contains two or more sub-claims with overlapping focuses. The ambiguity of the claim is equal to the number of ambiguous su...

Note that adjacency is handled slightly differently in the case of the combo operator. See the section on the combo operator for details.

3.9 Variable

[0103]Variables mark parts of the input that is not claimed by other conditions in a policy. Variables are adjustable and the part they mark may vary as the claim is manipulated (see variable condition).

4 Claim List

[0104]All claims made by policy conditions are added to an ordered list. The default criteria used to order the claims is as follows, listed in the order in which they are considered when comparing two claims. Each criterion is checked only if none of the criteria above it would apply. If two claims are equivalent with respect to all of the criteria, the claim that was made by the policy listed later in the Agent will win.

Abstract

Roughly described, a natural language interpretation system that provides commands to a back-end application in response to user input is modified to separate out user interaction functions into a user interaction subsystem. The user interaction subsystem can include an interaction block that is specific to each particular I/O agency, and which converts user input received from that agency into an agency-independent form for providing to the natural language interpretation system. The user interaction subsystem also can take results from the back-end application and clarification requests and other dialoguing from the natural language interpretation system, both in device-independent form, and convert them for forwarding to the particular I/O agency.
